+Deploying Django
+================
+
+Django's chock-full of shortcuts to make web developer's lives easier, but all
+those tools are of no use if you can't easily deploy your sites. Since Django's
+inception, ease of deployment has been a major goal. There's a number of good
+ways to easily deploy Django:
+
+.. toctree::
+   :maxdepth: 1
+   
+   modpython
+   fastcgi
+   
+:ref:`Deploying under mod_python <howto-deployment-modpython>` is the
+recommended deployment method; start there if you're not sure which path you'd
+like to go down.
+
+.. seealso::
+
+    * `Chapter 20 of The Django Book`_ discusses deployment and especially
+      scaling in more detail.
+      
+    * `mod_wsgi`_ is a newcomer to the Python deployment world, but it's rapidly
+      gaining traction. Currently there's a few hoops you have to jump through to
+      `use mod_wsgi with Django`_, but mod_wsgi tends to get rave reviews from
+      those who use it.
